Fairy Tail: I don't want to be the president

Chapter 419: Fire Dragon King? Ask him to fight me!
Wakaba, survive.

He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and slipped out of the guild. It was not advisable to stay here for long.

Then, Mira's eyes naturally fell on Elfman: "Is Elfman going out too?"

Elfman nodded. "Yeah, I just happened to see a job suitable for a man."

"Really..." Mira thought for a moment, threw the task list to Rhodes, and pulled Elfman away, "Come here, I have something to tell you."

Rhodes looked at the task that Elfman had chosen and silently started doing his homework.

After he had prepared everything he needed, Elfman followed Mira back, took the things Rod had given him, and said goodbye and left.

Rhode asked casually, "What's the matter that requires us to go outside to discuss it?"

"I told him about our plan and asked him not to save money so hard."

"Then why is he still..."

"Because 'A man has his reasons to work hard!'" Mira said in a hoarse voice imitating Elfman's tone.

After saying that, both of them laughed.

This can be regarded as gaining the support of my family. Besides...

Mira sat at the counter, holding her chin, looking up at Rod inside: "In a few days, when Elfman comes back, accompany us to the cemetery to take a look."

Rhodes looked back at her: "Okay."

Such an important thing should be told to Lisanna.

"I am back!"

The guild's door was kicked open. Rhode knew who it was from the noise:

"Natsu, can't you just open the door properly for once? You have to kick it every time."

Happy flew in cheerfully to correct, "Love, this time Natsu kicked twice."

"what?"

Lucy said helplessly: "The outermost iron door was also kicked open."

"..." Rhodes looked at Natsu's slippers. He really didn't mind the pain in his feet.

"Welcome back." Mira stood up to greet them, "Erza, did the mission go well?"

"It went very smoothly. Apart from the two people who had gone out and hadn't returned, which took some time, the others were all taken care of right away."

Erza parked the luggage cart at the door, walked in, and placed a few papers on the counter.

Lucy seemed very tired. She sat down on the stool, stretched out her hands, leaned on the counter, and flattened the round thing.

She sighed, "Luckily, the Dark Guild likes to hide in the mountains and forests, and it's okay if their house is damaged, otherwise we might have to pay compensation again."

Natsu actually asked in confusion: "Huh? Why?"

Lucy complained weakly, "Why does the guy who is most capable of causing trouble have no sense of self-awareness?"

Happy answered quickly, "Love! Because if I had self-awareness, I wouldn't be Natsu anymore!"

Rhodes smiled and put away the task list, as well as the certificate from the local prison that it had accepted the Dark Guild members, and recorded the completion time and other information.

"Mira, it's time to settle the reward."

"Okay." Mira pointed out a stack of bills and placed them in front of Erza, "This is your reward."

The missions they take are assigned to Fairy Tail by the local guild alliance, and the rewards come from the funds raised by the guilds in the alliance that are unable to provide combat power.

Therefore, there is no need to meet the client, the association will distribute it directly on your behalf.

Large guilds with stronger combat power, such as Blue Pegasus and Four Hounds, handled it this way.

"It's full compensation!" Lucy suddenly perked up. For her, full compensation was really rare.

However, before she could even get her hands on the new stack of bills, Erza pushed them back: "I'll give these back to you. Are they enough to compensate for the hotel's losses last time?"

Mira thought for a moment and said, "Almost. The rest is Gray's."

Gray has been teaming up with Juvia lately, so he has no share of the money here.

Erza smiled relaxedly: "That's good, then these are all for you."

This is the unwritten rule in the guild: when going out together, regardless of contribution, the money earned is divided equally among everyone, and the losses incurred are also shared equally by everyone.

Like Natsu and Happy, when there is money made, they get two shares, and when there is compensation for losses, Happy also has to pay one share.

Therefore, only those with particularly good relationships will form a fixed team.

Erza decided to return the money to Mira and Rod first, and no one objected.

Only Lucy felt heartbroken, as the rare full compensation had to be used to compensate for the losses.

Ah, because it wasn't something that was destroyed during the mission last time.

"My rent..." Lucy cried out.

"Don't worry, just keep working hard." Erza is always full of energy.

Lucy wondered pessimistically whether it would be so smooth next time.

Natsu smiled heartlessly: "Let's not talk about that. Anyway, let's have a flame meal first. I haven't eaten it for a long time!"

"We want to eat Mr. Cook's steamed fish!"

Although I didn’t even get any reward, the mission was successfully completed, so I’ll celebrate a little.

Mira directly stuffed all the money into Rhodes' hands and said, "Let's save it together when we have time."

"Okay." Rhodes put the money away.

What Wakaba said was just a scare tactic. Mira had no intention of taking sole control of the financial power.

"Mira, I want a strawberry cake." Erza patted Lucy's shoulder, "Don't be depressed, eat something, and then go check out the new job."

"That's all I can do." Lucy sighed, "Ms. Mira, I want to eat grilled steak."

"Okay, please wait a moment." Mira wrote down their orders and asked, "Would you like something to drink?"

“Iced coffee.”

"I want black tea."

Erza and Lucy each ordered their favorite drinks.

After a while, Lucky brought the drinks, but instead of leaving in a hurry, she talked to Lucy: "Lucy, do you have a barber star spirit?"

"It's a 'one.'" Lucy corrected, "Keisha, a Cancer. He likes to cut people's hair."

"Great!" Laqi lifted up a strand of her long purple hair. "I want to change my image recently. Can I ask him to help cut my hair shorter?"

"Is it 'cut' off?" Lucy was still not used to Lachi's way of wording. "Okay."

"Thank you! I'll treat you to today's drinks." Laqi was looking forward to the Star Spirit Barber.

"Laqi, check out here."

"right away!"

Seeing that she was very busy, Lucy said, "Come see me when you have a break."

"It's settled!" Laqi left in a hurry. "Why do you want to cut your hair off all of a sudden?" Rhode didn't understand. He looked at Mira's long hair fluttering in the distance and thought long hair looked good.

"Maybe it's because the weather is hot, so I'll feel cooler after a haircut." Lucy lifted her hair. When her hair was down like this, the back of her neck would sweat easily.

"Oh... Then I'll go help Mira get dressed." Rhodes took the food ordered by Lucy and Erza from the serving counter and put it down, then walked out of the counter.

Lucy held her chin in her hand and jokingly said, "What a loving couple..."

It's a pity that someone just enjoys himself secretly and is not shy at all.

While Rhode was busy, a female voice suddenly rang out in the guild, with a firm tone and a hint of shyness: "Please date me!"

Come again?

Erza's movements froze for a moment, and the fork in her hand fell onto the plate with a clang.

She turned around and saw Bisca, a girl with long green hair, holding a bouquet of flowers and confessing her love to Arzak.

"Ahhh..." Mira covered her mouth and whispered in surprise, "How bold."

"Shouldn't you be the one saying this?" Rhodes whispered in Mira's ear, then quickly tied her hair into a ponytail.

He looked at his skills and felt that they were getting better and better. Next time he would try to tie his hair into two ponytails.

Others who heard the sound also stopped what they were doing and looked over there.

Bisca's face flushed red, and she regretted it the moment she said that - she should have found a quiet place to talk to Al alone.

But seeing how affectionate Rhode and Mira were, and thinking about how decisive Mira was when she confessed her love to him, Bisca couldn't help herself.

Now her heart was pounding uncontrollably, and she dared not look at Arzak or anyone else.

Why do you have to confess when the guild is at its busiest? Bisca wanted to give herself a try.

Too impulsive.

But now that she had already said it, she could only wait anxiously for Alzak's reply.

However, Arzak's situation was not necessarily much better than hers.

Happiness came too quickly and too suddenly, and the young man was a little at a loss.

He had tried more than once to muster up the courage to confess, but failed. He had also imagined more than once that Bisca would take the initiative to speak to him, but when the surprise suddenly came, he found it unbelievable.

So Arzak stood there like a log, his face as red as Bisca's. After a long while, he managed to stammer out, "I, I, I... I do!"

It was just an ordinary confession, but he made it sound like he was accepting a marriage proposal.

The onlookers burst into laughter and gave applause and whistles.

The two of them had been flirting with each other for as long as Rhode and Mira, but they were too shameless. They often worked together, but when they returned to the guild, they were too embarrassed to even sit together for dinner, which was really worrying.

And Arzak was so useless that he actually waited for the woman to speak.

Having said that, Mira is one, Bisca is one, the girls in the guild are really amazing.

Who will be next?
I don’t know who pushed them from behind, but the two extremely shy people hugged each other.

Amidst everyone's cheers, Alzak and Bisca had smiles on their faces, and steam was almost coming out of their heads.

Erza didn't even have time to eat strawberry cake today.

I've been getting a lot of stimulation recently.

Although she had encouraged Bisca to confess her feelings before, when the time came, she was even more shy than Bisca.

"Erusa, Erza?" Lucy called a few times.

Alzak and Bisca went out on a date, and everyone had a lively discussion for a while, then went about their business.

Lucy even finished the steak she ordered, but found that Erza was still stiff.

After shouting a few times, she said, "We should..."

Erza was barely awakened from standby mode and stammered, "Well, thank you for your care. I'll go back first."

She stood up and strode out, her body swaying and her hands and feet moving unsteadily as she walked.

"…It's time to choose a new mission…" The second half of Lucy's words floated into Erza's left ear and out of her right ear, leaving no lingering sound and never entering her mind.

The new task could only be put aside for now. Lucy asked worriedly, "Is she okay?"

"It's okay. She also became this dumb when Mira confessed to me."

"Oh...hey? Miss Mira asked you?!" Lucy wanted to hear gossip.

"There's nothing I can do. My personal charm is too strong." While Mira was not around, Rhodes thought it would be harmless to brag.

……

That night, Natsu was pulled out of the city by Rod.

Mira didn't follow, she made an appointment with Lucy to go to the girls' dormitory.

——It seems that Juvia is going to move into the dormitory in order to get along well with her friends, and they want to help with the move.

(Juvia: Juvia wants Gray-sama to help with the move.

Gray: Male students are not allowed to approach the female dormitory.)
I heard from Mira that they seemed to be having a pajama party to celebrate Juvia's move and Bisca's successful confession.

Girls like Lebi, Laqi, Miji, and Chico all have to participate, and if they have too much fun at night, they may have to spend the night there.

When Rhodes asked her if she wanted to send a crab to pick her up, he received a very, very gentle smile from Mira.

So the crab didn't make it, and was ridden out by him and Natsu.

"Why do you have to be so secretive? Can't everyone know about the existence of dragons?" Natsu said, "I want to wait until I find Igner and introduce him to everyone."

"I don't want to cause a riot in the city, and this new acquaintance of mine likes to fight. I'm afraid he will tear down the town and I won't have the money to pay for it."

"He likes fighting, isn't that great!" Natsu bumped his fists and said excitedly, "It's just right for me to fight him!"

"And certainly not in the city."

"Love, I think what Rhodes said makes sense."

Natsu found that he was always in the minority when he went out with Rod.

Seeing that they were almost there, Rhode said without further ado: "Summon, Infernal Dragon!"

The air became hot and dry, and the Infernal Dragon immediately responded to the call. Before its figure appeared, a voice came from the magic circle:

"Here we go! There's work so soon? Tell me, bro, who do you want me to do?"

When he saw the surroundings clearly, he immediately said, "Isn't this the same place as last time... Hey, little dragon, where did you pick it up?"

The Infernal Dragon stared at Natsu, sniffed hard, and said in surprise, "It really is a little dragon, and it's a fire dragon! Whose is it?"

Natsu felt close to the giant dragon that looked like it was flowing with lava, and shouted anxiously, "I am Natsu, Igneel's child. Do you know Igneel?"

Although Rod said that his dragon has nothing to do with Iguneru, he didn't recognize the stone dragon last time, but maybe he will recognize the fire dragon this time?

"Igunelu, I haven't heard of it. Who is it?"

"Fire Dragon King, Iguneru!"

"Fuck, Fire Dragon King? Who is so awesome that he dares to call himself Fire Dragon King? Come on, call him over and let's fight him!"
